Grp 1a Low Cognition, Low Activation
Group 1: Subjects will receive an 8 week care transition intervention with an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse-Nurse Practitioner (APRN-NP) and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). The APRN-NP will guide the care transition intervention. This group will receive the most intense intervention.
Grp 1 Low Cognition, Low Activation: The intervention is focused on knowledge, skills, confidence and creating a partnership with the health care provider. Education is provided at a 5th grade reading level. The "teach back" method is used to validate knowledge, skills and confidence. Once knowledge is validated, the interventions focused on motivation.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 6 monthsPain interference is one of the 7 domains of the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). The PROMIS-29 is the shortest profile, with 4 questions asked for each of 7 domains, plus the single pain intensity item. PROMIS measures are scored on the T-score metric. Each short form is scored separately, yielding a total of 7 domain scores. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. There is no total score, but each axis forms its own score. Assessing patient perception of pain interference is measured as a 4-item short form scale on the PROMIS-29 survey. Each item is scored from 1-5 with a 1 indicating "not at all" and 5 indicating "very much." The T-Score for the average general population is 50. Higher scores mean more pain interference, thus a worse outcome. A score change of 2-3 points has been reported as clinically meaningful differences.

Grp 1a Low Cognition, Low Activation
n=14 Participants
Subjects will receive an 8 week care transition intervention with an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse-Nurse Practitioner (APRN-NP) and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). The APRN-NP will guide the care transition intervention. This group will receive the most intense intervention.
Grp 1 Low Cognition, Low Activation: The intervention is focused on knowledge, skills, confidence and creating a partnership with the health care provider. Education is provided at a 5th grade reading level. The "teach back" method is used to validate knowledge, skills and confidence. Once knowledge is validated, the interventions focused on motivation.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 6 monthsFatigue is one of the 7 domains of the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). The PROMIS-29 is the shortest profile, with 4 questions asked for each of 7 domains, plus the single pain intensity item. PROMIS measures are scored on the T-score metric. Each short form is scored separately, yielding a total of 7 domain scores. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. There is no total score, but each axis forms its own score. Fatigue is measured as a 4-item short form subscale on the PROMIS-29 survey. The patients' answers to the PROMIS-29 are scored from 1-5, with a 1 indicating "not at all" and 5 indicating "very much." Each subscales forms its own score subscale measures are scored on the T-score metric. High scores indicating more fatigue and a worse outcome and lower scores are indicative of less fatigue and a better outcome.

Timeframe: 6 monthsThe Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (PACIC) Survey is a 20-item patient report instrument that assesses patient's receipt of clinical services and actions consistent with the Chronic Care Model. Respondents rate how often they experienced the content described in the item on a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (no or never) to 5 (yes or always). Patients rated the care received from their health care team. The PACIC consists of 5 scales and an overall summary score, each having good internal consistency for brief scales. The five subscales were Patient Activation; Delivery System/ Decision Support; Goal Setting; Problem-solving/Contextual Counseling; and Follow-up/ Coordination. Overall mean summary score (range 1-5) was used in analysis. Higher scores are more positive rating of their receipt of clinical services.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 6 monthsQuality of life was measured by the EuroQol-5 (EQ-5D) and consists of 1 question for each of the 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. Patients indicate their health state for each of the 5 dimensions. The 5 responses give a health state represented by a 5-digit number (for example, 12231) corresponding to response categories reported by patients for the dimensions. Health states are scored to give the EQ-5D-5L index using a scoring algorithm from a value set derived from valuation tasks typically undertaken with general population samples. The five dimensions are combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patient's health state. EQ-5D-5L index scores range from -0.59 to 1, where 1 is the best possible health state. Negative values represent health states perceived as worse than dead, which is equal to 0.
